That had been going on since Munich in the 70's though...you hadn't read anything about it before a year or two ago?Biker wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 4:00 pmMany things really.

But as Burn pointed out you sure argued the point anyway...lol...its better you get amnesia then.Biker wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 5:46 pmIts actually been going on since its founding. I never really read into the details until recently though, in large part because I never really cared much about Israeli issuesstymiegreen wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 5:42 pmThat had been going on since Munich in the 70's though...you hadn't read anything about it before a year or two ago?Biker wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 4:00 pmMany things really.

You haven't learned your lesson though...that's the problem. I'm certainly not an expert on everything but I do tend to research shit before I argue it so I don't look like a horse's pitoot. Sometimes I fail miserably. I think you fail miserably more often than me though. Lol. But such is life I guess.
You keep telling yourself that...lol...there are certainly things that learning in real life is necessary...there are other things that a myopic view from only your doorstep leads to a misinformed decision...and what's worse is since you feel justified about it you'll argue it all day long because you think you have the REAL truth...lol...the trick is recognizing when there is a world beyond your front door.Biker wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 6:25 pmThats really the thing, isnt it? I dont use a search engine to make my arguments for me. Rather, I learn in real life, read what interests me, and then proceed accordingly.stymiegreen wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 6:19 pmYou haven't learned your lesson though...that's the problem.

Just like this illegal immigration nonsense. I dont need Google or Wiki to tell me what I see with my own eyes. I've lived on a border state for over ten years now. I know there is a problem

Given that you just admitted how your strategy lead to you having an ill-informed decision for years that you argued anyway you'd think a re-visit to your approach would be in order? Nah that would make too much sense. Lulz.
lulz

See! If I would've researched the spelling on that before I posted I wouldn't have come off like a horse's PATOOT!Wut wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 9:15 pmIs it "pitoot" or "patoot?"stymiegreen wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 6:19 pmYou haven't learned your lesson though...that's the problem.
